Bitteto and Irwin are borderline NHLers at best and Yannick Weber is not NHL calibre at all.
All 3 contracts can be buried in the minors without a cap hit, and there's no mention of them being one-way contracts either, so it could just be cheap depth. Outside of spending a contract, no reason not to do these deals.
